In the new trailer for Netflix’s upcoming film “Dumplin’” Jennifer Aniston’s character Rosie Dickson is reigning queen in her small Texas town as a former pageant winner who now runs the local pageant. However, when Dickson’s self-proclaimed “fat” daughter Willowdean (played by Danielle Macdonald) decides to enter the pageant, she starts a body positivity revolution and challenges the town’s perceptions of what it means to be beautiful.
In the movie, adapted from the best-selling novel of the same name by Julie Murphy, Willowdean (her mom calls her Dumplin’) decides to join her mother’s Miss Teen Blue Bonnet pageant in protest, despite saying she’s “not the Joan of Arc of fat girls.”
“It’s gonna be like a protest in heels,” Willowdean says in the trailer. Directed by Anne Fletcher with a script written by Kristin Hahn, “Dumplin’” will appear in select theaters as well as be available on the streaming service on Dec. 7.
The Dumplin’ Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, which features a new rendition of Dolly Parton’s “Here I Am” featuring Sia and new Parton song “Girl in the Movies,” will be released on Nov. 30 via Dolly Records/RCA Nashville.
